SN74AHCT244-EP: SN74AHCT244DW thermal resistance

Part Number: SN74AHCT244-EP

the datasheet for SN74AHCT244DW shows thermal resistance as 83 C/W for DW package 20 pin in table 7.4. the datasheet in SN74AHCT244MDWREP shows thermo resistance as 58 C/W for DM package.

I would think they would be the same. can you tell me if I misunderstood something or are that different , and if so why?
